As a person who only came on here to read Mike's posts for the most part, I want to personally thank the parties responsible for taking that away from me.

I've chopped onions once while listening to Morningrise. Does that count? OH! I've also farted in my car during the jam on closure. It was wet, uncomfortable, and made me cry on the inside.

I WAS SITTING NEXT THAT BLACK CHICK TOO!!!!! She had a bull ring in her nose right? My friend and spent most of Enslaved set checking her out. Unfortunately, after we went onto the floor to get closer, instead of a smoking hot black chick, we were given an extremely obese girl who danced and...

What's your rationale for describing them as "pathetic?" Do their recent shortcomings and drama void the credibility of their work from Lightning to Justice? I did like Load though. I just said "post-Load" era since that's when they really changed their style and appearance. edit - You'll...

^I agree. It's become way too predictable. However, It's just such a bad ass song that isn't too long that's brutal as hell. It's really is a perfect way for them to end the night.

They had a tendency to "appease" the fans live. They play the classics; you bang your head. It's a win-win situation. If you have never seem Metallica, you owe it to yourself to check them out. Now, the real question is who do I go see if I have to choose one - Wallet dictates fun these...

Mike's a musician who appreciates good music. I think he'd give props to the talent and their past accomplishments. People seem to let the whole Napster thing and the post-Load era overshadow everything else Now whether or not he'd applaud the steamy pile of excrement known as St. Anger...

This thread totally fucking sucks.

Good call on Dirge, but I have to agree with demilich; I'd go with Ulver personally. Track 1 off of Lyckantropen Themes.

Either 2001 or 2002. BWP - blew my fucking mind. They totally ruined my adolescent appreciation for Pantera and Slayer though. Probably a good thing. I still miss Dime though.

Stadium tour in the U.S. opening for Metallica or Slipknot and Cradle of Filth in Europe. They are all wearing Opeth shirts on stage. Mikael then writes a concept album based off of Bram Stoker's Dracula while Mendez heals from a brawl he got into with Lars Ulrich over who can win in a fight -...

Has anyone here actually listened to Phish? They are INCREDIBLY talented musicians. Never mind the fact that their fan base is essentially a complete drain on society. God I hate neo-pseudo-hippies. Anyway, I've always thought that Opeth is one of the few acts could definitely pull off live...

do you.....type...with....your thumbs....or did you have a....frontal lobotomy?

To the naysayers - change can be a good thing. Look up the word "progress." I'm confident that it won't say anything about remaining idle and keeping the status quo. That's what I absolutely love about this band - their ability to reach out and try new things. If I kept hearing alterations...
